FEATURES OF THE USE OF NON-TARIFF BARRIERS USE AS TOOLS OF NEOPROTECTIONISM IN WORLD TRADE

Abstract

The article analyzes the country-specific features of the non-tariff regulation and barriers as tools of neoprotectionism in the context of the global crisis, competition and significant restrictions in the use of customs and tariff regulation of foreign economic activity. The essence of neoprotectionism is revealed as a new phenomenon in the world economic relations between countries. It is revealed that the choice between protectionism and free trade as the principles of implementing the economic policy of the state is influenced by the state of world economic processes with their inherent contradictions, the peculiarities of the regionalization and integration processes, as well as the development trends in the world economy. The recognition of protectionism as a demanded international economic policy is shaped by the demand of society, entrepreneurs and the government. At the same time, the variety of subjects of international economic relations exert an exogenous influence on the implementation of the national states' policy (through the signing of trade agreements), thereby limiting the conditions for the implementation of protectionist policies.
